Financial Assistance

The Foundation's Eligibility Application for Financial Assistance form may be downloaded and/or printed by clicking here.

Directions for completing the financial assistance form may be viewed or printed by clicking here.

Please use these guidelines for the total household income when qualifying a case for financial assistance from the Florida Lions Foundation for the Blind, Inc.

Remember, if the patient is a child, you must still qualify according to the total household income.

If a patient has Medicare, the Florida Lions Foundation does not get involved. The doctors, facility, and anesthesiologist should take what Medicare pays as payment in full.

Note: At the Foundation's annual meeting in May 2005, the Executive Board approved the Foundation paying for Bilateral Cataract Surgery only after receiving a denial from Division of Blind Services or Vocational Rehab.

Contact your district projects chairperson if you need clarification on the above.

MD-35 Projects Chairperson
